This old man too dumb to cut this gunt loose will end up beat down.
People will go there just to egg them on and eventually someone won't put up him/her pushing them and calling them out. I won't feel sorry for him because he's a twisted ****ing stick as well but it's inevitable...

The restaurants are reaching out for help. They need the exposure, guidance and help. It's really not rocket science though when the business is empty and they cut corners with the food and staff, the profits are going to be in the tank. What gets me is when the owners of the drowning business legitimately think the food isn't the problem. Of course it is. If I was in that position, I would hope it was because the food sucked and I needed some help and guidance. If the food doesn't suck, and the staff is competent, there's a much bigger issue if there's no business.

Well, the devil is in the details. Ramsey is an asshole and an elitist prick. But... When the owner is keeping tip money... That's insane. Just... Insane. Making people wash his car? Insane... Found himself a little trophy wife (some prize), and let her run her dream business. But she's rotten too. It wouldn't surprise me a bit if the food was actually okay, but the atmosphere was just poison. |

When you're damn good at what you do, you can get away with being a prick. That said, I think he puts on more of an act for American audiences than anything else. I've watched the original British Kitchen Nightmares and found it to be utterly fascinating as he's much more reserved, more calm, there's less drama and screaming, dirty kitchens...etc.....and more based on the inner-workings of a restaurant, balancing financials...etc..he acts more in a gentle mentor role than anything else.

Even after he's helped them, they go under. Literally every single restaurant from Seasons 1 and 2 of Kitchen Nightmares is now out of business. The interesting thing is that from the British version, most of the restaurants...some of them under new ownership, still remain open. |

Yes, Ramsay seems more calm and collected in the British version. However, so our the restaurant owners. I don't think I've ever seen a British version where the owners of the restaurant are as completely helpless as these 2. |

I live just across the freeway from it. Have been there twice, both times for dessert after leaving the movie theater in the same plaza. Both times it was fine, however the owner really is a dick, and you can tell the employees tend to tip-toe around the place a lot. |
